It's smokey here. It made the moon red:

Garden gloves? Check. Scrub brush? Check. I am ready to clean the lawn. Got to get ready for Papa's visit.

I planned out some scenic walks for Papa. #1 Tumalo Falls:




#2 Painted Hills National Monument. This was not part of the original plan, but Plan B due to extreme smoke in Bend.

I did not let Papa off easy and made him hike to the top.



#3 Todd Lake bushwhacking adventure. We started on a nice trail...

We all earned a yummy dinner at McMenamins. Papa ordered me the hummus plate. He's got my number.


Mom had mahi-mahi with coconut curry rice and daikon coleslaw.

Dad had pork roast with broccolini and mashed potatoes.

Papa had steak with bacon butter and frites.


Sunday was Meera's birthday at the bounce house.


I was too wired to nap after the party - so off to the pump track we went.

Then we took Papa for hike #4, Dillon Falls.

Dad, I think we should swim there.
